Hot Bodies Cyclone D4 4wd EP Buggy Categories - Cars, Electric Off Road, Hot Bodies, Products - comments closed
Our mate Andy at RC Forum has snapped this pic of the prototype Hot Bodies buggy that finished 1st at the buggy pre worlds in Japan last year. The car hasn’t been seen until this point and it looks pretty sweet indeed. It appears to be shaft drive, and have a similar configuration to the JConcepts BJ4. We hope to get more information soon.

Schumacher Mi3 at the big show Categories - Cars, Electric On Road, Products, Schumacher - comments closed
Our hard working show partners RC Junkies have gotten some great up close and personal shots of the all new Schumacher Mi3 that we showed you 2 days ago. What more can be said what we dont already know, we get to see the new Mi3 box and it appears the car still looks great in real life and not just in photo studios.
Check out the images here… (more…)
Yesterday we showed you a preview of the new cars from Motonica which included the R version of the original P8.0 as well as a Classic class pan car. Well now we get a closer look at the P8.0 base, which i couldnt figure out yesterday, and apparently this car is a cheaper starter car based on the original P8.0 4wd car. Although this car is also 4wd from the pictures it appears to have no suspension and no radio plate and must qualify as one of the strangest concepts for a car that i’ve seen in a while.

Last week we told you about the Italian company Blade and that they were about to introduce a new 1/8th scale buggy, well here it is. If it looks familiar well thats because it is a re branded Jammin X1-CR but with some different material specifications, which should actually make it pretty handy on the dirty stuff. I dont know anything more than that but when i find something out i’ll let you know.
UPDATE: We now have some close up detail shots of the car

Kyosho Mini Inferno ST-09 Categories - Cars, Gas Off Road, Kyosho, Products - comments closed
Kyosho have shown the all new Mini Inferno ST-09 at this years Nürnberg toy fair. The stadium truck version of the very popular Mini Inferno, the ST-09 is just a small truggy and if the Mini Inferno 09 buggy is anything to go by it should be very quick and great fun to drive. The car comes in 2 versions, the Readyset version with starter box and radio gear included and the Almost Ready to Race verison without radio and starter box, with both versions supplied with the Sirio 1.5ccm motor.

The new Crono RS7 buggy Categories - Cars, Crono, Gas Off Road, Products - comments closed
Last week we confused a spy shot of this new car for the new Associated RC8, but quickly retracted that conclusion after we realised it was actually a new Crono and so here it is, the new RS7. A pretty conventional 1/8th scale buggy from the looks of things but it does use ball joint suspension up front and this particular car has CVDs on all 4 corners.
Check out the full image set here and here to make up your own conclusions.

Xray NT1 first real picture Categories - Cars, Gas On Road, Products, Xray - comments closed
I’m sorry for the 3 Xray posts in a row but they have some highly anticipated cars coming out and none more so than the all new Xray NT1 as seen above (click image for larger pic). This car has been majorly hyped and made its small time debut a few weeks back when it won a regional race on its first outing in Florida with the cars international debut comes in 2 weeks at the Florida Winternats. What about the car itself, well from what we can see it bears close similarities to the Mugen MTX and Kyosho RRR in looks at least, whilst the car itself looks pretty safe in design with no major, Team Magic style, innovation. We hope to get more details and pics later.
UPDATE: Official release pictures now online, click more… (more…)
